Product description

ATLAS BACKER ROD is designed for filling and sealing:
- expansion joints in ATLAS 100 and ATLAS 150 eaves systems for terraces and balconies.
- construction joints prior to application of sealing coatings – e.g. thermal insulation, windows and doors assembling, execution of expansion joints in floors and walls, etc.
Forms sufficiently strong base for the material sealing the joint, e.g. silicone.

Main properties

Flexible – easily adjustable to the shape of the joint.

Resistant to ageing – does not deteriorate under changeable weather conditions when closed in the expansion joint sealed with silicone or other sealant; resistant to wide range of chemicals.

With closed-cell structure – impervious to water and water vapour.

Reduces the amount of material needed to fill and seal the joint.

Supports the sealants used in the expansion joint.

Main parameters

temperature resistance -40 ° C to + 95 ° C
work temperature -20 ° C to + 40 ° C
